*Ozen 7 Lumberton 6 Final/Comments*


Recommended Posts

I'm not sure what your purpose was in even posting that JV score, perhaps the most humiliating I have ever seen, on this thread. Did that make you feel better about the one run varsity loss which was the topic on the thread?

I posted it because it was obviously a crazy game.  And yes in a time where the varsity isn't doing well it's nice to know there is some hope. I can be proud and brag about the school I support just like everyone else on here.  I feel badly for those kids, but when there are jv accomplishments something should be said. I think the jv teams should get more mention on here, because there are some really great players on those teams, especially from teams like PNG and Nederland, etc. where the varsities are so strong. So I'm sorry that you feel the way you do, but it is just a thread on a website.

Are you suggesting that a new thread be started about the JV score???  If so, then the Lumberton fans have every right to do that.  You can ALWAYS "pull off the dogs" in basketball...freakin' go into a stall!!!  You beat someone by 60-ish in basketball, you got to take your lumps when you get 'em.  What goes around comes around.  Heard a coach once say if you don't want to get beat bad...get better.

I don't really understand what logic you're talking about.  Either one being classless was never the issue, personally I don't think either were classless.  Both were unfortunate for the losing side, but it was not a "got to pay um back" issue.  Never was that attitude rendered by any of us on this thread I don't think. I will point out though that I don't remember reading any whining about humiliating scores on here when those boys from basketball lost by however many they lost.  I will also point out that I was told that the ozen jv baseball team might be having some large trouble with eligibility, which is understandable, every team of every school goes through it at some point, and would have contributed to their performance.  I was also told that the lumberton coaches did what they could to slacken what was happening, within reason of course.  You can't have kids skipping down the baseline, that's humiliating for everyone.  Again, I cannot speak from sight, only what I was told. Take that as you may.

VOP, I really am sorry for upsetting you. I do not know if you hail from Ozen or not, but my intention was not to point a finger and laugh at those boys. If it had been, I would have created an entire thread to it.  My intention was to bring to attention an interesting junior varsity game, as jv threads are scarce on here.  I will confess it is nice to know there is hope for some future success in lumberton baseball, especially with the varsity struggles it is enduring.  And congrats to ozen varsity baseball. I heard it was a good game.

I'm glad that you guys are happy and proud that several months later, in a completely different sport you "got to pay um back"

If I understand your logic, one classless act deserves another?

first off...i'm not from lumberton, nor do i have any allegience to the place.  i simply thought that your post was assinine.  class or no class, if you run the score up on someone, expect the same in return.  ozen would have shown "class" in basketball, maybe the whole thing is avoided....i don't know, maybe not.  what i'm saying is...do unto others...

    • Still, from what little I saw, it should have been a much closer game.  WOS was missing some fundamentals on defense, and a lack of imaginative play calling on offense.  Just my opinion as an objective observer on Texan Live, which was horrible btw, but that's another story. 
    • Either way,one game lead in the series. I rely to much on word of mouth 
    • West Orange Stark has been a powerhouse since I csn remember. At some point, your bound to fall off to some degree. Alabama has 3 or 4 loses this season. Who would have thought? Has Orange lost kids to LCM or even Orangefield?
    • Interesting matchup this Friday. Both teams have very good offensive and defensive lines, which will make this game interesting. Having watched Texas High all season, they have a wide open offense with very good skill players. If you look at their stats they run the ball 57% of the time and pass 43% of the time. Personally, that is a bit deceiving, as most of their games have seen reserves running the ball in the 4th quarter. I would estimate the primary offense is 50/50. Through 12 games they have run for 3,224 yds (48tds) and passed for 2,894 yds (32 yds). Potter, the Tiger QB, has been very efficient with a 69% completion rate and 1 interception (which came from a tipped pass). The passing is distributed primarily to 4 receivers…. Ball (865), Wrightner (811), Montgomery (532), & Pilgreen (392). The rushing comes from 3 running backs … Johnson (1,432), Ball (768) & Moore (716).  The Tiger defense is solid and very quick.    Hope #15 is healthy enough to play. He is a test for any defense. I was concerned about the Nederland RB, but felt Texas High did a good job containing him. I wish this game was in the afternoon, as Nachitoches is having their Festival of Lights and their will not be any rooms in the inns and restaurants will be full so plan accordingly. PNG are state champions until someone knocks them off, so I extend the Indians the respect they deserve. Pulling for the Tigers.  
    • The baseball coach has a ton of experience at high school and college level and hasn’t done anything for I think around 7 years now,it’s just something that the higher ups live with.And there has been talent come through that he hasn’t done anything with!
